Ability to check if access token has expired without renewing the access token
See original GitHub issueRequest: an SDK method to check if access token has expired without renewing the access token.
Auth.currentSession()Auth.currentAuthenticatedUser()
^ both of these methods expose an isValid function to check if access token is valid, but both call getSession which renews the access token.
The documentation indicates this is expected for currentSession, but doesn’t for currentAuthenticatedUser. It’s unclear if this is expected behavior or not. Regardless, it would be great to have an SDK method to check if the session is still valid without renewing the token. Right now it seems like the only option is to read from cookies directly and manually calculate expiration.

@motzko @AlphaJuliettOmega @icapurro @zilahir @martinmicunda @sonphnt What is the use case you are trying to solve by only checking if the token is expired without having the library to renew the token?
@martinmicunda Glad to see
